City Hall and Council must be damn sure existing pre-election sign bylaws are bullet proof and will not fall prey to any lawsuit challenges.


I’m still hearing depending on which way the wind blows that there could be a possible BC court challenge to our pre-election sign bylaws referencing #6363.  Surely our mayor, city councillors, City Clerk and city legals would not ordain pre-election sign bylaws that would not stand the test of time especially in a BC courtroom.

I am assuming they all think pre-election sign bylaw #6363 is in fact emphatically legal down to its very core and any challenge would be held in contempt.  I mean why else would the mayor and ALL city councillors vote unanimously to uphold pre-election sign bylaw #6363?… hmm

… Unless they do not think anyone would dare spend the time or money taking the city to court.  Realizing if the case did reach the courts the October 20 civic election will have come and gone – game, set, match – catch us next time around?  And thereby their jurisprudence can never be questioned come re-election night.  #despicables?
